Your new Horizon Hobby boat has been designed 
and built with a combination of waterproof and water-
resistant components to allow you to operate the product 
in calm, fresh water conditions.

While the entire boat is highly water-resistant, it is 
not completely waterproof and your boat should 
NOT be treated like a submarine. The various 
electronic components used in the boat, such as the 
Electronic Speed Control (ESC), servo(s) and receiver 
are waterproof, however, most of the mechanical 
components are water-resistant and require additional 
maintenance after use.

Metal parts, including the bearings, pins, screws and nuts, 
propeller, rudder, rudder mounts, prop struts, as well as 
the contacts in the electrical cables, will be susceptible 
to corrosion if additional maintenance is not performed 
after running in wet conditions. To maximize the long-
term performance of your boat and to keep the warranty 
intact, the procedures described in the “Wet Conditions 
Maintenance” section must be performed regularly.

CAUTION: 

Failure to exercise caution while using 

this product and complying with the following
